Food was exceptional. Really the best I've had in a long time, and my girlfriend and I like high quality restaurants. The best scallops and grouper we've had since we can remember. Service was spectacular. Ambiance was appropriate, and our table was quiet and romantic. Five stars!

This is our second visit in less than a week!! Excellent service by Cameron this evening. Tonight we went for lobster roll special and were not disappointed. The roll is rather stuffed with sweet meat. Sides could be fires or spring mix. A fairly priced bottle of Soave washed it down. We were able to sit outside and luckily under the awning cover. And i recently added the app and am earning points. A win win!!!!
